SAN JOSE, Calif. — A jury has added US$290 million more to the damages Samsung Electronics owes Apple for copying vital iPhone and iPad features, bringing the total amount the South Korean technology titan is on the hook for to US$930 million.
The verdict Thursday covers 13 older Samsung devices that a previous jury found were among 26 Samsung products that infringed Apple patents.
The previous jury awarded Apple US$1.05 billion. But U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh ordered the new trial and tossed out US$450 million of the damages after concluding that jury miscalculated the amount Samsung owed.
